26 ABERJOKA . 1946 ERNEST ARTHUR TUTEIN, III Dartmouth College Activities: Traffic; Class Play; Vaudeville; Football; Track. Tall, dark and handsome, Tutie, with a certain strong, silent manner that baffies the opposite sex at times, left a big void when he went to private school the last half of the senior year. However, the many friends who remember him with happy associations wish him every¬ thing of the best. Hail and farewell, Tutie! MARY ALICE WAGSTAFF Regis College Activities: Science Club. Mary Alice came here last year from Dayton, Ohio, where she was active in many school affairs. She is a scientific-minded girl who, nevertheless, is always peppy and ready for fun. She has been very popular at W. H. S. and has made a lasting impression. ALLAN ULRICH United States Navy Activities: Student Council; Aberjona; Football; HockeJ Have you noticed a stalwart but retiring fellow passing through the corridors of W. H. S..’ Well, that’s All He has left the weaker sex to its own wiles, and has concentrated on his studies and athletics all during high school. Hockey is his favorite sport and he has really proved himself on the ice. BARBARA JEANNE WALTERS Activities: Honor Roll; Chorus; Class Play Committee; Vaudeville; Red Cross; Science Club; Dramatic Club; Aberjona Club; Math Club; Thrift Association. Barb is that genial and likeable girl who has been consistently on the honor roll. Have you ever seen her without a smile? Certainly not! With her agreeable disposition and brains, she has a refreshing manner that has made her one of the most gratifying persons to know. Carry on. Barb! BRIANT DIXON van der WYK Activities: Class Play. Tall and good-looking describes this man-about-school known to all of us as Van. Returning to W. H. S. this year after two years with Uncle Sam’s Navy, Van lost no time in getting back into school activities. He has a way with the fairer sex, and is the proud possessor of a maroon convertible which is always literally bulging with people. NATALIE ETHEL WARSKY Vermont Junior College Activities: Aberjona; Chorus; Band; Class Play; Class Play Com¬ mittee; Red Cross; Dramatic Club; Basketball. Nat came to W. H. S. as a sophomore. Fairly bursting with pep and personality, she is the center of attraction wherever she is. Her dramatic career came to a head this year when she was given one of the leads in the Class Play. Need we add that she put it over with a bang? GALEN STUART VINCENT Activities: Traffic Squad; Class Play; Vaudeville; Red Cross; Science Club; Math Club; Football. Fun to those who know him, but a bit retiring otherwise, Galen has a certain something that makes him the strong silent type. His quiet good humor makes him nice to have around. May you have good going on the road ahead, and may you never have an “engine that won’t start.” EILEEN RUTH WELCH Activities: Chorus; Vaudeville; Library Club; Basketball; Field Hockey. A great asset to both the basketball and hockey teams, Irish has been an indispensable and irreplaceable player. She is a friend to almost everyone and always is ready with a cheery “hello” and a bright smile. She hopes some day to be a doctor of surgery, and we know Eileen has the makings for just such a profession.

ABERJOMA . 1946 25 ROBERT CHESTER SPANG Tufts College Activities: Chorus; Aberjona, Business Manager; Football; Hockey; Track. All of you know Bob for his eflBcient managing of the Aberjona this year. A sports enthusiast — a stalwart on both the track and hockey teams! Bothered by late hours, Joe looks forward to the day when he no longer has to punch the time clock when he gets in at night. Bob’s one of those all-around fellows with a twinkle in his eye and a friendly “Hi” for everyone. KENNETH RUSSELL SYMMES United States Army Air Corps Activities: Traffic Squad; Aberjona; Chorus; Band; Science Club; Track. Have you noticed a very good-looking boy whizzing around town on a motorcycle. The chances are it is Kenny. He’s salvaged and owned more motorcycles than anyone in Winchester. Have you perchance noticed a good-looking boy in the band.? Chances are that’s Kenny, too, a gentleman adept at many things. MARK EDMUND STRAWBIDGE Boston University Activities: Traffic Squad; Class Play, Stage Manager; Class Play Com¬ mittee; Vaudeville, Stage Manager; Red Cross; Science Club; Dramatic Club; Aberjona Club; Math Club. Mark is that indispensable stage manager whose efficiency and capability have added a great deal to the success of several Vaudeville performances put on by the students of W. H. S. He also became a member of the Aberjona Club in his junior year — an honor well cd-mcd THOMAS THORNTON Massachusetts Institute of Technology Activities: Honor Roll; Indoor and Outdoor Track; Science Club; Executive Board. While we’re mentioning especially nice smiles in the senior class. Tommy’s is one to be included. With two bright brown eyes to top it, the combination makes him a nice person to know. Behind the tiller of a sailboat and on a swift downhill ski trail, he’s no novice. May you “slay ’em”! WILBUR DALE STUMP, JR. Mass achusetts Institute of Technology Dale, with some of that Southern finesse, came to us in his sopho¬ more year, left us for private school his junior year, but liked us so well, he came back to graduate with the class of ’46. Although he hopes to go to South America, we hope he will stay around New England long enough to get in four years at M. I. T. The best to you-all, Dale, from we-all. SALVATORE JOSEPH TIBAUDO Activities: Student Council; Chorus; Vaudeville; Football, Co- Captain; Basketball; Baseball, Captain; Athletic Associa¬ tion; Class President, ’43; Mansfield-Wheeler Cup Winner, Sammy was welcomed back with great enthusiasm when he returned from the Navy in the fall of ’45. An all-round athlete, he has been outstanding not only on the football field, but also on the baseball diamond. His host of friends were especially happy to see him win the Mansfield-W’heeler Cup. ROBERT SWANSON Harvard University Activities: Student Council, President; Student Council Executive Board; A. A.; Traffic Squad; Red Cross; Science Club; Aberjona Club; Math Club; Hockey. Swanee possesses a keen sense of humor and a most pleasing manner. A superb sailor, he has walked off with several cups for his expert sailing, besides entering the Eastern Championship races in New York last spring. Along with sailing, Swanee’s favorite activities are playing hockey and dancing (ask Ellen). What more could any¬ one ask? MARCIA ANN TURNER Activities: Aberjona; Chorus; Red Cross; Thrift. We find Marcia an active but quiet girl who always has a word for everyone. Petite and cheerful, Marcia has high ambitions in the art field and from what we have seen of her work, there isn’t a doubt but what these ambitions will be fulfilled in an exceptional manner.

A B E RJ 07 A . 1946 27 BRADFORD DAY WHITTEN Another motorcycle enthusiast, like Kenny, Bunny makes a big noise both in school and out. He is the kind you’d call a good guy, with the qualities of personality everybody likes. He hopes to have a business of his own some day, and we hope he gets as much fun out of it as he has had in W. H. S. MYRNA ZAMANAKOS University of California Activities: Honor Roll; Red Cross; Student Council, Advisory Board; Class Secretary, ’43; A. A.; Class Play Committee; Vaude¬ ville Committee; Basketball; Cheer Leader. Minna needs no introduction to any of us. She’s that well-dressed, good-natured gal with a happy smile. She has a cheery “Hi” for everyone, which has won her many friends. Minna loves sports and has supported all contests. Personality (in those familiar flashy slacks) describes Minna, and a truer friend couldn’t be found. JANET MARIE ZINN One girl who helps promote friendly relations between the senior class and the under classes is certainly Janet. Janet has pep, and a gift for making friends, both sparked by many winning ways. All in all, “one swell pal.” SHIRLEY ANN ZIRKEL Regis College Activities: Chorus. Shirl can talk on any and every subject, enjoys a good argument, and almost always wins out in the end. Underneath a composed exterior lurks a bit of fire. Shirley has her share of brains and uses them to the best advantage, an excellent formula for achievement. When Shirley gets past the novice stage with her four-wheeled dobbin, we advise all jay-walking pedestrians to watch their step. il
